Velvet Elvis

Repainting The Christian Faith

by Rob Bell

GoodBookStall Review:
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever”…and yet our perception of who Jesus was, is shaped by many, and often conflicting, views and influences. Rob Bell’s Velvet Elvis is as groundbreaking as it is refreshing and easy to read. Set to be a best-selling classic, it revives a New Testament understanding of Jesus’ life & teaching by striping off centuries of tradition that so often masks the real view. A master communicator, Bell takes the reader back to reveal Jesus within a 1st Century Jewish context and raises the reader’s understanding of how incredible and inspiring the teaching was. Velvet Elvis is one book that should be on every serious Christian’s bookshelf!
Now available in a new edition with a variety of covers.
